The choice is frighteningly diverse - so it's up to you if you want to be entertained while you're sitting down on the couch or hiding behind it...

Grab a mate for the unbeatable two player mode, pick up your shotgun and make those brain-dead fiends pay.

Monstrous minis on PlayStation StoreSometimes the spookiest scares come in the smallest packages, which is exactly where minis come into play. The minis category on PlayStation Store features a massive mixture of great and gruesome bite-sized titles to download just in time for Halloween. Action fiends can blast their way through brutes galore in the likes of Alien Zombie Death, Dracula - Undead Awakening, Age of Zombies and the refreshingly different platform game Monsters (probably) Stole My Princess.

If you're after something a little more cerebral (just be sure to watch out for brain munching zombies looking for a feast in the process), then Freekscape: Escape from Hell, Zombie Tycoon and Hysteria Project may be just up your dark and shadowy alley.

Don't be fooled by their size - minis pack a monstrous punch.

Dark downloadsThe frightful number of downloadable Halloween goodies on PlayStation Store is sure to keep you on your toes. Suitably scary themes for games such as Dead Nation can give your PS3 a delightfully dark demeanour, while you can dress up Sackboy in LittleBigPlanet on PlayStation 3 in a werewolf costume, Halloween mask or even download a spooky Monsters Level Kit.

Even the Wild West isn't safe from the living dead, thanks to the Undead Nightmare pack for Red Dead Redemption, which introduces ghost towns, cemeteries and zombies to the rootin' shootin' PS3 action adventure.

Digital ComicsDigital Comics on PSP plays host to a massive collection of creepy comic books to take with you wherever you go. Marvel Comics wants your brains with the hilarious and grisly comedy Marvel Zombies and Marvel Zombies 2.

Romero's Land of the Dead and The Wolfman. Go on - get downloading... if you dare.
